In the high-altitude city of El Alto, Bolivia, families struggle to access clean water, despite living just hundreds of meters from a major water treatment plant. The film explores the stark reality of water scarcity, where the privatization of water resources forces impoverished families to walk miles to unreliable wells, while the wealthy enjoy easy access. Through the eyes of a young girl named Vanessa and her family, the documentary highlights the devastating impact of water inequality, where the lack of safe water leads to illness, social stigma, and even death. As the global water crisis intensifies, the film raises urgent questions about the commodification of a basic human right and the consequences of prioritizing profit over people's survival.
